Funny you say that, I was actually just going to post asking if my room heater could be used to dehydrate my shrooms

Was going to get a used dehydrator today, but I was left on delivered at the last minute

It’s unnerving to watch the iPhone photo recognition shit tracing out the bacteria.

Is it normal to coir stick to mushrooms when picking, or this is indicator of me doing something wrong / something is wrong with coir? Its hard to get it off, mycelium is bonding it with stem. Its not small amount, actually I have to get a knife to scrub it out from all the shrooms.

It's very normal, the mycelial network has spread through the coir.
Just brush the coir off.

It's definitely highly unnecessary but I got this cool foraging knife and use it to harvest my mushrooms. I like it more than scissors or the twist and pull method. And even when some verm (or coir in your case) gets stuck to the base, the brush is helpful to get it off. Also comes in a cool case :lol:

Thx :sunspots:

So what do you do later with the remaining end of the stem attached to the substrate after you cut mushrooms out with knife?

Does my shoebox look like it's about to pin? It's Casper (APE variant) so maybe I'm not used to how long it's taking to pin?

I just try to cut it as low to the stump as possible. If there's a tiny bit of stump left I either just leave it or try to cut it out and just toss that tiny piece.

Ok. And there is no problem with contamination, it turns into mycelium?

I'm sure it's better to remove the stump entirely which I definitely try to do. But I personally have not run into issues with contam yet if I leave a tiny bit of stump that can't easily be removed without completely ripping it out.

@boceephus_jones - looking good to my old eyes. Casper was a slow one for me, but you seem on the right track. Peace to you, friend!

I have my first few APE growing slowly. When do I pick these guys? Can't get the image upload function to work as some other people mentioned. But one cap is getting a bit more dark blue
